SDCC 09 - MOTU Wun-Dar the Savage He-Man Action Figure

The Blot’s not a die hard Masters of the Universe fan anymore, but I thought this figure looked pretty neat. Evidently Wun-Dar the Savage He-Man action figure is a bonus figure available only to those collectors who join Matty Collector’s Club Eternia for 2010. If you’re already planning to collect the entire series of figures, how can you pass up this special offer? Especially since Wun-Dar comes with the greatest accessory ever, a freaking loaf of bread!

Wun-Dar kinda looks like a custom I might of made as a kid, taking a He-Man body and giving him Zodac’s accessories. But it is cool Mattel has chosen to make him anyway and given him such great weapons like a power sword and bread. On a side note, how cool does the Moss Man figure next to Wun-Dar look? I used to love that action figure as a kid.

SDCC 09 - Mattel AttiTUBES

The Blot is pleased to bring you a first look at Mattel’s potential new line of designer vinyl figures entitled AttiTUBES, which premiered at San Diego Comic Con 2009. It’s weird, as Hasbro moves more and more away from their line of Mighty Muggs vinyl figures, it looks like every other toy company is trying to get in on the designer toy craze. To be honest, I was shocked it took Mattel this long to introduce a figure like this.

Mattel's AttiTUBES
No word on if Mattel is even going to produce these AttiTUBES prototypes, but they are cool to look at. The three figures on the left (Mer-Man, Orko and Webstor) come from the world of He-Man and the Masters of the Universe, but I have no idea who the two characters on the right are. One looks to be an astronaut, while the other is a generic looking scientist. You can be sure I’ll be scouring the internet to find out more information on these cute little quirky vinyl figures.

The only Mighty Muggs on display at Hasbro’s San Diego Comic Con 2009 were the soon to be relaunched Marvel Universe Mighty Muggs toy line. According to the display there are at least three Waves planned to come out this year!

What most fans will really be excited about finally seeing is the debut of the highly anticipated Deadpool Mighty Mugg! Along with Deadpool and a slew of previously announced figures, Hasbro will also be producing Mighty Mugg versions of Juggernaut, War Machine and what looks like a 1st Appearance Wolverine.

The Blot is pretty excited to finally have firm confirmation that at least one line of Hasbro’s Mighty Muggs figures will continue. Here’s hoping to more Mighty Muggs news in the near future!
